Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A New Self-Supporting System of General Education I thank the American Institute of instruction for calling me from my cold hill country, - from the frowning and inaccessible mountains of the " Granite State," to this grand and busy metropolis of manufacturing cities, to address so high an educational power on a favorite theme. Though the subject of "Oral Instruction" was assigned me, you will allow me also to give a concise view of a new and self-supporting system of general and liberal education, built mainly on this mode of instruction, practised in unison with proper handicraft. Many years have passed since I began to realize great defects in the prevailing methods of education for both sexes, and the necessity of some system, having a more direct reference to the less wealthy classes, especially of females, embracing very radical improvement for the formation of physical, moral, and intellectual character, - for the more easy, rapid, and useful acquisition of general and liberal learning,- for its application to the various concerns of life; one for more enterprise than has been usual, and one open to all, by embracing the principles and means of entire self-support. About ten years since, the feasibility of such a system, became to me quite probable, and I have bestowed upon it considerable thought. During about four and a half years, I have been endeavoring, in an infant seminary, by reason and experiment, to test its merits, and to render it worthy of general regard.
